Hello MMD & Marc,  Thank you very much for not forgetting about me!
Too bad your memory is not 100% that sharp.  A couple of mix-ups:

- The cardboard disc organ is an "Ariston";
- The disc I played was "I'm Blue" by Eiffel65;
- However, I do also have "Master of Puppets" on our large Dutch
  Limonaire organ.

While we're at it:

- I'm still happily arranging mechanical music, mostly for 20-noters;
- Following the viral video back in November, I've set about to
  re-arrange it for 20 notes:

Not much better up here in the Vancouver, BC, area (AKA "Raincouver")
Enjoy!

Musically,

P.S.: If anyone is interested in hearing "Master of Puppets"
in a rendition for a 29-key French organ, please get in touch
and I'll provide you with a Soundcloud-Link.
